What it has now is The parallel regression test script (gmake check) is known to lock up when run under HP's default Bourne shell, at least in HPUX 10.20. This appears to be a shell bug, not the fault of the script. If you see that the tests have stopped making progress and only a shell process is consuming CPU, kill the shell and start over with gmake SHELL=/bin/ksh check to use ksh instead. regards, tom lane
